• <div><p>The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas.

Q: Is it better to cut tile wet or dry?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you&rsquo;re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option.

We had a couple of birds to get into the Laundry Air Duct, because the cover out side had gotten knocked off, and they sucked it all out of vent. and then made a new cover for it so that the birds could not get in. This was excellent for them to take the time to do this. We were very pleased.

Other companies told us our job could take up words of 2 weeks (extra labor for them) and Sweet It's Fixed had the job done well within a week. The guys were clean, professional, and very respectful when they were working in our home. Good honest work and a fair price!
